We had the 2018 Midwinter Barbershop Harmony Convention here. All of the musical events were held in the concert hall. The last night featured over 800 voices, the organ, plus the voices of those in the audience. This is a stunning place to hear music.

Disney knows how to run a park. We had a great morning here and then went to Disneyland. We wish we had more time. For some advice, read my review of Disneyland. Enjoy!!!

Asian Garden Mall is a cultural spot, and you will find Vietnamese food, clothing (traditonal to modern), home decor (also traditional and modern) and jewelry, lots of jewelry (jade, gold, silver, stones, pearls, etc.) And a place to pray!
Bakeries, Pho, and great variety of Vietnamese and French flavors.
Live a little and try a foot massage. There are many of these shops. Want fresh fish (still swimming in a tank?) go to one of the bigger markets. Find produce you won't see in Vons, that's for sure.

Nice palace to take your dog for a few hours they will have a blast but remember they will get sandy and salty so bring lots of stuff to keep the car clean and MOST OF ALL please pick up your dog poop!!! This beach was originally owned by surfers and they were not happy with the dog invasion but we have learned to share but keep it clean cause they are watching!!!!

Located near the John Wayne Airport, this museum is an aircraft hangar with some magnificent specimens of World War II aircraft including a B-17 and a B-25. There are other military vehicles as well as some vintage automobiles.There are several large maps on the walls showing air operation theaters from World War II along with several displays of interest. There is a good amount of free parking available right outside the entrance. The is a great place to spend a couple of hours, especially if you are interested in World War II history. When I went, there was a docent available for further information.

The park is well kept and has many amenities. You can see walkers, cyclists at any time of a day on the trails. You can enjoy the nature in the interior of the park or choose play a round of golf, a match of tennis. The park is truly a gem in the heart of crowded Little Saigon.

Expectations were high for the entire family and Disneyland did not disappoint.
We’d been to Disneyworld in FL but never Disneyland. We really liked the smaller size of Disneyland. The weather was perfect during the day but got chilly at night. Not sure what we were thinking but we didn’t bring enough layers so most of us were pretty cold by the end of the day.

Exhibits specialize in the art of the world's indigenous peoples.
Reviewed By Linda C - Moorpark, California
We've been to the Bower's numerous times since we frequently return for special exhibits. They currently have a wonderful exhibit of treasures from the Summer Palace, revolving around Cixi (pronounced she she), a fascinating ruler of the Qing Dynasty who reigned roughly during the same period as Queen Victoria. The items are varied and many are quite remarkable. We had lunch there at Tangata, which will validate your parking, saving you $6. The food and service are always excellent. I read a scholarly book on Cixi before our visit, which made it even more interesting but you might also just do a quick online search to learn more about her and the period. Allow time for the other exhibits and permanent collection if you're able.
9. South Coast Plaza
Reviewed By Lumerian - Costa Mesa, California
The malls are dying out and South Coast Plaza is a classic that is still alive. All of the top stores are represented. Two sides connected by a bridge. My wife and I love to eat at Ruby's on the Crystal Court side of the mall. See's Candies is a Southern California legend and is a must try for any traveler. Even if you don't buy anything, the food options are amazing.

This is the best place to take dogs. Huntington Beach has a dog beach. Dogs can also walk along the sidewalk that runs along the beach. If you travel further south, there's Newport Beach and Fashion Island--dogs are welcome. Even further south, there's Laguna Beach, that allows dogs on the beach off season. But dogs are welcome around town and in the park overlooking the ocean all year round
